Meeting Notes 2023-09-27

Attendees

• Icebreaker question: Pick your favorite decade. Tell us why

• Jake: (any) the 1960s because everyone had high hopes for the future
• Autonomous: (any) the 60's because there was a lot of love, or at least everybody thought they loved each other
• Paige (they/them): probably the 90s because that was a fun childhood time
• Sierk: probably the 90's, I lived in Prague for a while which was really cool in the 90's, lots of good music, saw Fugazi ten times and Rage against the Machine 6 times so the 90's i guess it is
• Ed & Karl the dog: had to leave, but "I support Yar's proposal"

Agenda

Proposal for the delegates to remove CLP from Omni

• jake talks a lot about history with CLP/Rafiq since they first joined,
• autonomous: i looked into CLP, they gave me the impression of being an extremist organization, their writing points to violent extremism, if Omni seeks funding it's entirely possible that Omni would not receive funding if there were any signs of extremism taking place. The other aspect is of harassment of other members of sudoroom who don't agree with them, a lot of this harassment has been against our code of conduct, such as the harassment of Silver. I would definitely support the removal of CLP
• paige: i endorse removing CLP as well, i'm just concerned with not doing this discussion how it was last meeting. Yar's email and there was one other person who went case by case, talking about marxism/leninism...we should have a really clear statement of why we are parting ways, for example if the palestinian youth movement asks why we are doing it
• jake: what about yar's proposal that is on the consensus list
• paige: i was thinking of a compiled omni decision, a finalized version of what yar has, and maybe have that in the meeting, to be included in the notes.
• jake: anything else?
• paige: i wonder what we'll do with BOGSS, danielle was crying at the last meeting and i think that was real, ... this meeting tomorrow will be minus CLP and BOGSS ?
• jake: i think danielle was used by CLP and overwhelmed
• paige: yeah i think they were clever to do that and pick someone who hadn't read the emails and didn't know what was going on.
• autonomous: it's late over here, gotta go
• paige: think it is better if jake is not delegate for this meeting so that it is clear that more than just jake at sudo supports removing CLP. I nominate Andy but really okay with anyone from Sudo who just will go in and vote yes to removing CLP.

• Discussion among Jake, Paige, and Sierk about having a new delegate for tomorrow's meeting. Decided Paige will be delegate for tomorrow's meeting. We will have a discussion on who to be delegate for the meeting after.
